Question
Chapter 9, Problem 9.54P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

To analyse whether the given statement −In nuclear fusion, two nuclei combine to form a new nucleus, is true or not.

Concept Introduction:

When two or more than two nuclei join, they form a different nucleus with protons and neutrons and it is known as nuclear fusion.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

To analyse whether the given statement −The energy of the sun is derived from the fusion of two hydrogen-1 (H11) nuclei to from a helium-4 (H24e), is true or not.

Concept Introduction:

When two or more than two nuclei join, they form a different nucleus with protons and neutrons and it is known as nuclear fusion.

Interpretation Introduction

(c)

Interpretation:

To analyse whether the given statement −The energy of the sun occurs because once two hydrogen nuclei fuse, the two positive charges no longer repel each other, is true or not.

Concept Introduction:

When two or more than two nuclei join, they form a different nucleus with protons and neutrons and it is known as nuclear fusion.

Interpretation Introduction

(d)

Interpretation:

To analyse whether the given statement −Fusion of hydrogen nuclei in the sun results in a small decrease in mass, which appears as an equivalent amount of energy, is true or not.

Concept Introduction:

When two or more than two nuclei join, they form a different nucleus with protons and neutrons and it is known as nuclear fusion.

Interpretation Introduction

(e)

Interpretation:

To analyse whether the given statement −Einstein’s famous E=mc2 equation refers to the energy released when two particles of the same mass collide with the speed of light, is true or not.

Concept Introduction:

When two or more than two nuclei join, they form a different nucleus with protons and neutrons and it is known as nuclear fusion.

Interpretation Introduction

(f)

Interpretation:

To analyse whether the given statement −Nuclear fusion occurs only in the sun, is true or not.

Concept Introduction:

When two or more than two nuclei join, they form a different nucleus with protons and neutrons and it is known as nuclear fusion.

Interpretation Introduction

(g)

Interpretation:

To analyse whether the given statement −Nuclear fusion can be carried out and controlled in the lab, is true or not.

Concept Introduction:

When two or more than two nuclei join, they form a different nucleus with protons and neutrons and it is known as nuclear fusion.
